Want to update 5 star review. Learned they can do pretty much anything DMV rep can do. For a small fee they can give you registration sticker on the spot; also, change address if you've moved. Doing this at DMV will take hours and even taking day off. Or, worse, after waiting whole day at DMV they can't do it because you forgot a document. Well worth the small fee to do at Smog Express. read more

Offered to stay open longer around the holidays and got in and out within 20 minutes.

They are always getting you your car as soon as possible. Jonathan has been great each time and first time seeing Steve the owner he was very thorough with his work. They offer registration services here as well but I haven't used it yet. I would always go here before any other smog station. Thank you guys. read more

I needed a quick smog check on a new vehicle. Was this quick! 15 minutes from drive in to drive out.

Definitely bring your car to this location for your smog. Tyler was extremely professional, and did an amazing job getting me in and out. I highly recommend this place! read more

First time here today, service was quick, $58 total for my Civic. Owners are friendly.

Every once in a while, we all strike gold! It was time to get one of the vroom vrooms smogged, and I was planning on going to a place that I've done business with for years, until the following happened... I called the place to see how busy they were, and I asked for the price to smog, and was quoted a price higher than I recall, paying for one of our other vehicles a year ago. When I shared this information, the man called, asked for a quote and he was quoted $10 less than what I was. No rhyme. No reason. Also, no business for me. Onto the good stuff... I did a quick yelp search, and found a couple places that were also outrageously priced, and then happened upon smog express! The woman that answered the phone was super sweet and friendly, and the biggest bonus is that while most smog places will tell you that they're walking only, smog express does take reservations. Sure, you can walk in, and they will absolutely help you out, but a reservation gives you a guaranteed time slot. What was really cool was I showed up early for my appointment, and rather than making me wait, they took me right away. It was really seamless. I did ask when I made an appointment if they offered any kind of discounts. As it turns out, if you mention that you are a yelper, they offered a five dollar discount. Hey, it may not be a big deal to everyone, but I thought that was really cool of them to do that! I was told when I made the appointment that from start to finish it probably would take about 15 minutes. This is literally a quarter of the time that I'm used to spending at the former place that I did business with. 15 minutes?! I'm there! Located on the edge of downtown/midtown as part of a gas station that if you've ever been in the area, you absolutely have driven past, and probably didn't even notice them. It's a shame. Don't pass this place up. The customer service is excellent. Everyone that works there super nice. The guy that did my smog check came in and chatted with me when he was done. Super professional. Super friendly. And super trustworthy. My appointment literally took 15 minutes. They know what they're talking about. They offer some cool additional services if you're in a hurry, such as being able to provide you with DMV tags and an additional fee. Plus, bonus points they are star certified! They are only open Monday through Friday, and they also gladly take credit cards. Price is vary, depending on the year and make and model of your vehicle If you need to get your vehicle smog, this is absolutely the best price in town with the best service! read more

Topnotch service! Highly recommend! Steeve is such a professional and honest, down to earth , funny , and very knowledgeable of what he do. These is going to be my regular smog spot from now on ! read more

Super quick service! You can also renew your car registration here AND get your stickers same day. Beats waiting on the DMV. read more

Smog Express - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Sacramento, California

Came here to smog my little Honda. The young man who works here was excellent. Greeted me immediately, although he was in the other room working on a vehicle. Told me everything I needed and took my vehicle within a minute. Finished within 10 minutes. Very quick. Straight to the point and it was cheap. My neighbor recommended me to this place and I can see why he likes it so much. The two workers don't mess around and get the job done. Their customer service is excellent. They know how to treat clients. I've been to other smog places over the year and it's okay in service, speed and respect. But this place, "Smog Express," I like a lot and will always be back year after year. I always highly recommend it to my family, friends and neighbor. A solid, excellent reputation business. read more

What exceptional service! Brought my car to be smogged and the job was done in 20 mins for $58. Very knowledgeable staff! Located on busy Folsom blvd with good sized parking lot. There was no wait.

Great customer service! Super speedy and very polite. Hassle free experience! Definitely will be coming back for my next smog!

A two part review: He got my car in & done really fast, on a busy day. BUT he pulled some REALLY stupid flirting thing, stauling my leaving with unnecessary paper shuffling & It WASN'T CUTE. It really unsettled & annoyed me. He would never treat a man this way, & after politely smiling I quickly left, & now I'm angry. I won't go back there again. Ever. read more

Very efficient and the cost is reasonable! In and out in 10 minutes. Jonathan, the technician, is very professional and never rude. I would recommend this place to my friends and family. read more

they have great customer service. very fast and efficient smog check. 10/10 i recommend

I called and got seen right away. Smog check was very fast. The young gentleman who helped me was very courteous and friendly. He did a great job. The owner had an attitude and was confrontational with me, which is why I'll never go back. There was some confusion over the price so they didn't charge me at all, although I offered to pay. I appreciate this, but didn't like the attitude. The young guy was absolutely great, so I do recommend if you can just interact with him. read more

Steve was great. If need a Smog check quick and don't know where to go, this is your place. Smog Express was easy, quick, professional, affordable, and best of all a quality service.

I highly recommend Steve and his shop. read more

See all

I came here this past Saturday based on the reviews from Yelp. They are nice and helpful. At this time you have to pay a $30 fee if you want to get your tag right then and there (they have no control over that fee). WORTH IT! They even pull the old tags off your car and put your new one on for you. Go here if you need to get your car smogged. Also, the gas prices that were a part of the property were so much cheaper than I paid. I may come back to this place because of the prices for gas! read more

I'd give this place 10 stars if I could. I came here just for a smog check because I had to get one for my title transfer and renewal of registration, but Steve at Smog Express helped me do it all at his site. I was ready to lose my whole day to waiting in the DMV line but he took care of everything in less than 30 minutes. He even put the registration sticker on for me and tightened my license plate frame which I didn't even know what about ready to fall off. Steve was very kind, quick and helpful! The definition of above and beyond customer service. read more

Smog Express - Steven applied my new registration sticker and even tightened my license plate for me! Thank you - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Sacramento, California

This was my first time coming here and I was pile strongly recommend. The service was fast, efficient, and transparent. The main reason I decided to leave a review was because of the service. The receptionist and technician were both friendly and went above and beyond helping me with an issue not related to the smog . The process was at the cheapest price as most people in the area. read more

These guys are awesome. Great communication, competitive pricing, fast service. I always have my cars tested here.

I went here to get my title changed instead of fussing with the DMV online or in person. Steve and his assistant, Jonathan, were able to get my paperwork processed in a matter of minutes and I received the updated title in the mail within a week and a half. Yes, I did have to pay a little extra to get this done but the convenience and expeditious process made it worth it. Service is friendly, the workers are knowledgeable, and I like being able to support a small business in Sacramento. read more
